After re-installing off of a usb stick with the
debian-wheezy-DI-b4-amd64-netinst.iso image, I did the following:

Installed qemu-kvm, libvirt-bin, virt-manager, and virt-viewer
Added the physical volume I want my VMs on
Extended the volume group
Created the new logical volume
Formatted and mounted it to /var/lib/libvirt/images
Launched Virtual Machine Manager

I was then able to create a new VM with 3072 MB of RAM, so it looks like my
choice of install image was the issue. Thanks to all for the help.
