Chimpy hasn't talked to Musharaf. (But Biden did.)

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush has not telephoned Pakistani leader Pervez Musharraf since he imposed emergency rule and cracked down on protesters in a crisis that the White House on Tuesday called a "mistake."

Sen. Joseph Biden of Delaware, a Democratic presidential contender and chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, spoke with Musharraf by telephone and described the conversation in a statement.

"I told President Musharraf how critical it is for relations between our two countries that elections go forward as planned in January, that he follow through on his commitment to take off his uniform and that he restore the rule of law to Pakistan," Biden said.

"It is clear to me from our conversation that President Musharraf understands the consequences for his country and for relations with the United States if he does not return Pakistan to the path of democracy."
