No time limitations. I just thought it interesting that they didn't
bother with stuff after 1996, even though he is Evil Incarnate. You'd
think they'd keep a little better eye on America's #1 bigot,
xenophobe, racist, misogynist, etc. etc.
I've never understood what it is about the man that causes so many
people to so rabidly despise him.

racist?
