I just noticed this...when they are eating and Lenny's talking about getting back to the Earth, Mrs.Corcoran said "I read an editorial in the Minneapolis paper just this morning about that" and Lenny said "Really? I didn't see it." I think he DID see it and was just parroting what he'd read.

Eddie Albert:
"You know , I work in the banking business and I've found that one can get to know a lot about a man just by listening to his dinner table conversation. I listened to you, and your talk about returning to the land, and simple values, and I have to tell you, I was impressed, truly impressed."
"Thank you, sir."
"Yes, I think that was about the biggest crock of horseshit I've ever heard in my life. 'There is no deceit in the cauliflower? What IS that? Who SAYS that?"
(Paraphrased.)
Perhaps Daddy Corcoran saw some potential in Lenny's ability to bullshit and got him started in Minnesota politics.

Ha...well a lot of Lenny's lines (even stolen like about the cauliflower) would probably work for a politician and a man or woman running for office has to be persistent and non-truthful....
Irony: Minnesota politics are sure different today than in 1972.
