I have read the VA ratification debates several times. Henry said no such thing.

You must not have read very closely. Henry gave several speeches warning of what he considered the open-ended nature of certain constitutional clauses.

You are correct. It was a comment in passing when Mr. Henry was asked why he had not chosen to attend the Federal Convention.
