How to use ignore in a sentence?

  1. Dale Bumpers:

    Nobody has suggested that President Clinton committed a political crime against the state. So, colleagues, if you honor the Constitution, you must look at the history of the Constitution and how we got to the impeachment clause. And if you do that and you do that honestly according to the oath you took, you can not. You can censure President Clinton. You can hand President Clinton over to the prosecutor for President Clinton to be prosecuted, But you can not convict President Clinton. And you can not indulge yourselves the luxury or the right to ignore this history.

  2. Franklin D. Roosevelt:

    The moment a mere numerical superiority by either states or voters in this country proceeds to ignore the needs and desires of the minority, and for their own selfish purpose or advancement, hamper or oppress that minority, or debar them in any way from equal privileges and equal rights -- that moment will mark the failure of our constitutional system.

  3. Cannon Harrison:

    You can't just ignore a broken law that falls right in your lap but was kind of a bummer, she said it was her first deer ever, too.

  4. Erick Erickson:

    It's not a good thing, but I think the base will largely ignore it, they don't want Stacey.

  5. Rick Jones:

    I recommend you simply ignore it, they hope for attention. In other states they have won by getting all displays banned. We will not allow them to win in Michigan. They can have their snake and all the darkness it represents.
