Ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya insisted late Saturday that he will not accept any deal to restore him to office if it means he must recognize elections later this month.
In a letter addressed to President Barack Obama, Zelaya also repeated his accusation that Washington reversed its stance on whether the Nov. 29 vote should be considered legitimate if he was not in office.
"As the elected president of the Honduran people, I reaffirm my position that starting today, no matter what, I will not accept any agreement on returning to the presidency of the republic to cover up this coup d'etat," Zelaya said, reading from the letter on Globo radio.
Zelaya spoke from the Brazilian Embassy, where he has taken refuge since slipping back into the capital, Tegucigalpa, on Sept. 21. He was hustled out of the country at gunpoint by soldiers June 28, touching off a political crisis that has seen the U.S. and other nations cut off much of their aid to the poor Central American nation

Now is the time to have him arrested.
That is the whole point of everything that has transpired.
Chavez butt boy Mel never intended for there to be another free election in Honduras.
I am really surprised by all this. I expected Obama and the State Department to succeed in bullying Honduras into taking this thug back.
Must be a few pro-democracy anti-communists left in the State Department to fight Obama and his illegal Marxist Czars..
Adios, Mad Mel. Your endorsement isn’t worth a week old banana peel.
His days are numbered.
My prediction today is the same as since this crisis began. He will end up teaching at an American university.
Well, Zelaya is in a position of power to dictate now isn’t he?
I bet that brazilian embasy is getting a little confining also.
Play very loud a/c/ d/c music beamed at the building.
Yet another foreign policy failure by Pres__ent Zero.
The brilliant and erudite Obama was outsmarted by a bunch of hicks from the jungle. I would dare to bet, though, that the jungle hicks have high school and college records that they dare to show to their electorate. Obama fears to do this. The Obama brilliant and erudite aura is a smoke screen from the media. He is dumber than a box of rocks. Actually, he would likely be successfully challenged by a single rock.
Ho-hum! Isn’t this guy’s 15 minutes of fame up yet? What a bore he is!
Why don’t they just deport this whining diaper-doper?
Surprise!Zelaya believes winning one election several years ago made him dictator-for-life;that is the pattern of these communists:hold elections and count votes until they win.After that there will be no need for elections.
Now is the time to put a bullet in his brain.
Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba will invade Honduras and restore Zelaya, with assistance from Putin and Jintao.
I think its coming sooner than you think. Many Hondurans are very angry at him. If you have noticed the AP photos, the windows in the Brazilian embassy are covered with newspaper to prevent the snipers from shooting him.

Chavez and Ortega does not want to deal with him. They think he is crazy.Zelaya was thrown out of their countries.
