You were lied to.
From the US contract of carriage....
Involuntary
Boarding Priorities: If a flight is oversold and there are not enough volunteers, US Airways may be
required to deny boarding involuntarily, in accordance with the following:
The last customer(s) to present him/herself (themselves) at the boarding gate may be denied
boarding in the event of an overbooked flight.
Boarding preference will be given to Dividend Miles members based on their status in the program and time of check-in.
Special efforts will be made to never involuntarily deny boarding to customers requiring special
assistance or unaccompanied minors.
