Still no response on from Propaganda Village. Bah Humbug to this guy. If he has kids, I hope they find out that he confiscated a cupcake from an innocent American less than a week before Christmas.
I heard it on the top-of-the-hour ABC radio news several hours ago in the car. Of course it wasn't news to me.

I do enjoy the headline on ABC blog you linked, introducing the expression "security theater" to a wider audience:
