VIDEO : Oprah to those women who call her a traitor : "I am a free woman."

iâ€™m a free woman. and being free means you get to think for yourself, and you get to decide for yourself what to do. so i say i am not a traitor. no, iâ€™m not a traitor. iâ€™m just following my own truth, and that truth has led me to barack obama.

[...]

don't play me small. i am not voting for barack obama because he's black. i am voting for barack obama because he's brilliant.

OH SNAP!

When it comes to smackdowns, Oprah is the queen.
