Owning slaves is morally reprehensible regardless, but there is a difference between actively fighting to preserve slavery (Lee) and quietly allowing it through inaction (Founders). I also think a minority of the Founders might have opposed slavery, but the Southern states wouldn't have been on board with the Constitution if it had prohibited slavery.
