There is not way to comment out Javascript so that it would not be
extractable by a determined person.
Javascript is a client side scripting language and as such must be sent by
the server to the browsers.
Even if some browsers supported hiding the code via the view source option,
the client could simple use another http client to get this information. You
could no sooner hide JavaScript then you could hide HTML.

This is a good start, but for serious inspiration on obscuring your code
beyond recognition, please visit The International Obfuscated C Code Contest
