    that's a hipocrite.

    Someone who preaches one thing and does another. You have it spelled incorrectly, though. The correct way is: "hypocrite."

    Here's the 1st definition given at dictionary.com:

    a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

    it's a person who acts or behaves opposite of what they preach. Saying you hate thieves, and then stealing $10, makes you one.
