When someone doesn't live up to their ideals, why does that bug you?

It doesn't bug me when people don't live up to their ideals. If anything, I feel their disappointment.

What rankles me is hypocrisy. I'm assuming the people in question don't actually have high ideals. Or their ideals are for other people but are beneath them. Or that they pretend fealty to those ideals to wield power over the masses.

Does it really say anything about the ideal?

Not that I can think of.
