In years gone by, finding every instance of a particular spokesperson using a particular turn of phrase would have taken days at least. It took me just moments to find every instance of outgoing White House press secretary Scott McClellan using the phrase "dignify":

MR. McCLELLAN: Les, that's another one -- that's another one I'm just not going to get into dignifying.
MR. McCLELLAN: Helen, you had said that this was relating to a rumor that you heard, and I think there's a difference between rumor-mongering and journalism. And so I'm just not going to dignify those kind of rumors from this podium.
MR. McCLELLAN: No, I said this was relating to some trashy rumors that are circulating out there, and I'm just not going to dignify them from this podium.
MR. McCLELLAN: Well, I'm not even going to dignify that with a response.
MR. McCLELLAN: I don't think I need to dignify some of the comments that President Chavez has made with a response.
MR. McCLELLAN: All right, next question. I'm not going to dignify that.
MR. McCLELLAN: I don't think I have to dignify every ridiculous comment out there.
MR. McCLELLAN: Well, one, I've seen some of his comments and I'm just not going to dignify them with a response from this podium.
MR. McCLELLAN: And if you want to keep bringing up these questions, you're welcome to. But I'm not going to dignify them.
MR. McCLELLAN: -- and if you want to ask those questions, that's fine. I'm just not going to dignify them with a response.
MR. McCLELLAN: Ken, I'm not even going to dignify that with much of a response.
MR. McCLELLAN: Ken, I was there with him, and I'm just not going to -- I'm not going to dignify that with a response.
