"I regret that my quotes about our team's upcoming visit to the White House were taken out of context," Porter said in a statement issued by the team. "I am very excited to have an opportunity to visit the White House and meet the president of the United States."
Porter also said his comments were not meant to suggest he disapproves of Bush or the job he is doing.
"We will be guests of the president and I would never do anything to disrespect him," Porter said in the statement. "I consider our upcoming trip an honor and a dream come true. Our entire team is looking forward to visiting the White House and enjoying what promises to be the opportunity of a lifetime."

Umm, yeah. Do you think someone wrote this statement for Joey?
What a lot of the reports of that initial statement didn't say is that Porter was laughing the entire time he was talking about visiting the President. It was all just a big joke; nothing more.
