Jim Webb actually said...

"It is important that all Americans remain aware of the many sacrifices made by soldiers and civilians on both sides."

"The Civil War sesquicentennial is a time to reflect and commemorate the bloodiest conflict this country has ever seen."

"It is absolutely critical that we establish these national parks to commemorate and preserve the legacy of this visionary American hero."

"We wish to commend Senator Jim Webb and Senator Mark Warner for their outstanding leadership to help preserve the unprotected hallowed ground on the battlefields in the Petersburg area."
