Targeting IE with valid css selectors

If you're reading this in Firefox, Safari or IE8b2 (in default standards mode), this text should just be standard black.
If you're using IE6 it should be blue, and for IE7 and IE8b2 (compatability mode) red. Below are the only styles applied to this page

These are the only styles applied to this page:

	p.color {
		color: #000;
	}

	* html p.color {
		color: #00F;
	}

	*:first-child+html p.color {
		color: #F00;
	}
	

What this means

Can I get an Amen?
