Curious

I've always wondered why colors don't change as things move. I mean, if colors are created by a series of prisms and refractions dealing with waves of light, why wouldn't colors shift as things move, therein changing the projection of any said prisms/refractions? Why does my blue polo shirt stay blue no matter where I move? Curious to me.

Wait, don't they? Isn't that the whole Red Shift phenomenon? Maybe you just aren't fast enough.

Wouldn't this be a perfect time to mention the shift in colors from Red Virginia to Blue Virginia? I am feeding you here, Obama boy. . .
