It takes one of our land based missiles 4 minutes to clear the hatch after the button has need pushed.
The problem there is who has the authority to make the call that must be made instantaneously to respond in time .? 
Whoever the Duty Officer in charge happens to be working grave yard shift that night..would be North America's  last hope to see to it that our land based missiles get launched in time.

The error was convincing Russia that you simply cannot listen. And the neocons are working very hard to accomplish that error.
