Dean said "What I want to know is why in the world the Democratic Party leadership is supporting the president's unilateral attack on Iraq?" Dean said.

at the California Democratic Party State Convention in Sacramento.
on 3/16/2003, on the same stage where Gephardt said , "We must disarm Saddam Hussein," and he said he was proud to sponsor a congressional resolution authorizing Mr. Bush to use force, if necessary.
