Elevating the Enemy

Aired 9/8/06 Elevating the Enemy

From "Wanted Dead or Alive" to "I don't know and I don't care" to suddenly this century's combination of Hitler and Lenin combined...Osama sure has gone through some transformations in the administration rhetoric. While it is pretty clear that this kind of rhetoric is hoping that a fearfull American citizenry will vote Republican what does this read like in muslim countries? That Osama is on a par with the huge figures on the world stage? That the number one superpower is intensely worried about him? That's a lot of prestige for a guy living in hiding with tribesmen in the Pakistani Badlands. Does the administration even care how much they pump up Osama's respectability among potential future terrorists so long as it brings in enough votes to keep control of Congress?
