Samuel Wales was on the money: Lucida Grande is a variable-width font.
Org-mode expects fixed-width (monospaced) fonts, i.e. fonts where
every character has the same width, such as Courier or Consolas. With
a fixed-width font, tables can be aligned by simply making sure each
cell contains the same number of characters through padding smaller
values with spaces and truncating larger values. With a
variable-width font, on the other hand, it’s much more complicated (if
it’s possible at all—I think you’d have to do weird things with
images).
Try a different font, e.g. Lucida Console, and you will see things
lining up correctly.
