That is the whole idea of this machine, you know. Deterrence is the art of producing in the mind of the enemy... the FEAR to attack. And so, because of the automated and irrevocable decision-making process which rules out human meddling, the Doomsday machine is terrifying and simple to understand... and completely credible and convincing.

...is that the... whole point of the doomsday machine... is lost... IF YOU KEEP IT A SECRET! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL THE WORLD, EH!?! *echoes*

The political party is exchangeable because they both agreed on the mechanism finally.

Doomsday machine? I posit it does exist, as all the nuclear reactors operating on the planet. They're designed so that once started you can't just up and walk away from them. Fuck no! These babies require constant attention. Failure to maintain them would be catastrophic. Gee, can't very well wage all out war like we used to, eh?

[John Donne]

Almost as intelligent as the austerity mechanism the Democrates came up with.

The U.S.S.R nuclear-control device, "Dead Hand" is somewhat close to the doomsday device this movie depicts. The purpose of it is to ensure the retaliation capabilities of the Soviet Military, despite possible absence of its government. Supposedly it's still in-use and active.
