Jim Webb actually said...

"I have never carried a gun in the Capitol complex, and I did not give the weapon to Phillip Thompson. And that's all."

"The gun actually belonged to Senator Webb, and that Webb had given Thompson the gun on the way to the airport."

"The incident is an oversight and says the aide is a former Marine and a trusted employee of the senator."

"To our knowledge, this incident was an oversight by the senator's aide."
