    America is safer? The Pentagon doesn't think so:

     
    It's closing its day care center because it can no longer ensure the children's safety:
    Parents say the sudden pronouncement contradicts the many assurances they have received that the facility -- located in the Pentagon's north parking lot -- is among the safest in the nation. Now the parents are questioning the validity of the government's decision to close it down.

    "The parents just aren't buying the security issue," said Jeffrey Altdorfer, whose wife, Laurie, is a civilian employee at the Pentagon and whose 2-year-old son, Jordan, has been enrolled in the Pentagon Child Development Center since December. "It doesn't stack up."

    The facility, which once had a waiting list of 100 children, was shut down briefly after the 2001 attack. Though it reopened a month later, officials said it never again reached its capacity of 140 children. The parents of the 117 children who use it say the inconvenience will be widely felt.
