Oprah may appear to be all-powerful -- but according to Reverend Jeremiah Wright, she doesn't have as much pull as we thought.
Barack Obama's former pastor was in D.C. yesterday, where he went on the Oprah offensive, saying she's only "an entertainer, not a politician" who doesn't "care" about social policy and can't help the poor at a structural level.
His words are rough -- but does he have a point?

Barack Obama just wants Reverend Jeremiah Wright to shut up.
In a presser today, the presidential hopeful blasted his pastor's controversial preachings on 9/11, AIDS and everything in between -- saying the comments make him mad, angry and are 100% opposed to what he stands for.
Though Wright was quiet when TMZ got him and his shove-happy security yesterday, don't expect him to quit yapping anytime soon.

He may have single-handedly done in Barack Obama with his arrogance, but Reverend Jeremiah Wright's work still isn't done until his security messes with TMZ.
If he really wanted Barack to win, he'd just stay home.
