My husband gives me a subscription to the Washington Times every year for Christmas. It's only .25 per copy and it is the greatest newspaper you will ever read! It is straight news--opinion appears on the last 4 pages of the first section with an amazing variety of columnists of every political persuasion. In fact it was the only paper in D.C. to carry Hillary's column--which drew a lot of reader protest!--but when the editor asked her to write in a style which reflected her personality she refused--and they dropped it! ;) The glitches in their mailing seems to have been improved and I often receive the previous day's edition--but they are worth waiting for. Even if sometimes 2 or 3 arrive together. This is the best money you will ever spend. On Christmas Day the banner reads "Christ Our Savior is Born Today!" and the editorials are from Matthew and Luke! On July 4th you will read the Gettysburg Address and Washington's message to the troops. This truly is America's newspaper--please support it! And best of all the strip Mallard Fillmore has been moved from the comic page to page 2. The international news coverage is nothing short of phenomenal--you will thank me! Please don't forget to pray for our President and his family every day and also for our troops--for those who wait for them and those who lead them--that they will be safe. We are blessed to have them all!!!! and we can only say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your sacrifice.

I've been reading the Washington Times since the mid-1980's. I worked near BWI and bought it to read at lunchtime.

When I retired, I moved to Cape Cod and bought the weekly edition.

Been back in MD since 1997. I have to go out to buy it - about 2 miles - but I do it almost daily.

You're right, it's a great newspaper.

I would love to see them go national. They could publish the front section around the country and have localized interiors, i.e. metro, sports, ads, etc..

The only problem is the Moon connection which allows idiots to criticize it, like Al Hunt, and it probably turns off some folks.
