We were talking about the war at lunch and I posed this question to a co-worker:

Would you rather do the right thing and be hated, or the wrong thing and be loved?

Ideally, of course, you'd want to do the right thing and be loved. And I'm sure many anti-war folks think we're being hated because we're doing the wrong thing.

But even aside from the context of the ongoing war, what about the question itself?
