I think most people who say Obama has no policies have not bothered to look at his policies, and expect him to explain every detail of his policies during every speech.
He wants to complete revamp health insurance, allowing people to choose the same type of coverage that Congressman receive and to stop insurance companies from discriminating against people who have medical conditions already. He also wants to give extra tax credits to pay for health care (as does McCain).
He wants to reform the tax system so that corporations can't take advantage of every loophole in existence to avoid paying taxes, which is the fiscally responsible thing to do when our deficit is spiralling upwards to a DANGEROUS level.
He wants to repeal the majority of the Bush tax cuts, because they have cost the country more than the ENTIRE Iraq war. Don't believe me? Go look at the numbers yourself.
He wants to invest heavily in domestic energy, especially renewable energy. He is also for some level of offshore drilling. I disagree with him in not promoting nuclear energy.
I am not saying all of you are guilty of this, but most of you saying Obama doesn't have good policies have probably not actually looked at his policies. Here they are, in black and white, taken straight from his website. If you want to say he does have bad policies, at least READ them:

We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
