Amphibole - Ambiguity of Speech

Ambiguity is an oft used tool of politicians. Many of whom, with long practised skill Purse their lips, as though great decisions, Having caused them some concern, will Incite further rhetoric, if logic prevails. By way of byzantine responses, they bamboozle Opponents with wordy confusion, though it fails Logical explanation! Rather than a blank refusal, Evasive amphibole is a politician’s, customary ploy! Rhymer. October 2nd, 2016. Some of our politicians are superb at this, as we've seen recently in interviews they've given!
