Typical politician, streaching the truth to make a point

"Having access to broadband in even the most rural areas of our country is as important as getting that electricity to them and air conditioning to them back in the 1940s and the 1950s."

We did not get AC until about 1960, and we lived in town (had a swamp cooler before that). And around here, most people in my part of suburbia still have swampers (I have an AC unit).

Short cut terminology for Swamp Cooler (see ropeguru's post for more details on what a swamp cooler is). Works ok unless you have lung issues like allergies, emphysema, etc, AND if the outside air is under 15% humidity. Hope this helps.
