Is the airport security/"pat down" brouhaha being overblown?

I'm presently on my 11th flight in two months (4 of them int'l). Clearing security has never taken more than five minutes from the ID check to the exit, and I haven't seen anyone going through intrusive extra screening. Are people getting worked up about anecdotal stories, or do I just have the process down pat?
