Nope, he never said it. It was just a mis-interpreted quote from an interview that Bush exploited during the elections. It's a shame really.
Meaning he supported the creation of it
But Bush, being either dumb (or surprisingly smart), basically lied to the people and twisted his words.
Mudslinging sucks, especially false mudslinging.

It'd be pretty hard for me to imagine life without the Internet. Imagine all the time wasted at the library doing research and alllllllllllllllll the boredom. lol
Well Happy Birthday, Internet.
