More second-hand lies. Kimball is channelling the Drudge Report — could anything further cement his reputation as a non-intellectual? If you want the truth of this, see here.

The quote: “an enormous blind spot in this culture,” “the fundamental flaw of this country that continues to this day” refers to slavery, which every schoolboy knows was written into the original constitution and only removed a century later. So I take it that Kimball supports slavery and would repeal the 13th amendment? The passers of that and all other constitutional amendments were not afraid of critiquing and modifying the constitution.
