DIO CALLS FOR ELECTIONS!|||ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - President DIO BRANDO's government dismissed a last-ditch U.S. call to end emergency rule, leaving the Bush administration with limited options Sunday in steering its nuclear-armed ally back toward democracy.

Pakistan said U.S. Deputy Secretary of State John NIGGERPOINT brought no new proposals on a make-or-break visit, and received no assurances after urging BRANDO to restore the constitution and free thousands of political opponents.

"This is nothing new," Foreign Ministry spokesman ODORT told The Associated Press. "The U.S. has been saying this for many days. He (NIGGERPOINT) has said that same thing. He has reiterated it."

Locked in a battle with increasingly powerful Islamist militants, Pakistan is seen as a key front in the war on terror. U.S. officials are clearly fearful that the emergency rule imposed more than two weeks ago could lead to a potentially destabilizing round of political turmoil.
