In the Document menu, choose Preamble and paste the following line:
\usepackage{comment}
And then one of the following two lines for if you want them printed or not.
\includecomment{comment}
\excludecomment{comment}
This will work for what you describe, but LyX lacks proper conditional text
support. (Yes, I know the ifthen-package workaround, that's pretty ugly.)
