Virginia Republicans are in an uproar after the state teacher's union sent an e-mail to its members encouraging them to wear blue-colored shirts to school to show their support for Barack Obama.

State Republicans are calling it an undisguised attempt to influence students' political views.

The Virginia Education Association sponsored "Obama Blue Day" on Tuesday. In an e-mail sent last week, it urged teachers to participate by dressing in blue.

"There are people out there not yet registered. You teach some of them," the Sept. 25 e-mail reads. "Others, including our members, remain on the fence! Its time for us to come together, voice our unity, because we make a difference!"

I wonder what happens to teachers that choose to wear red...

Glad they're focusing on their jobs.

Maybe they are trying to teach the children about the doppler effect. When something is coming at them at a high rate of speed it causes a compression of the wavelengths that shifts the light towards the blue end of the visible light spectrum.

This fast approaching object has been labeled by some as "Change" and by others as "Impending Doom".

Regardless, the lesson is there.
