you'd need to use SQL functions that break the datetime into its component
parts, and order by them.
such as:
order_by(func.datepart("MONTH", my_date_col), func.datepart("DAY",
my_date_col), func.datepart("YEAR", my_date_col))
"datepart" routines vary by database backend with very little cross
compatibility - you'd have to consult the documentation for your database on
the recommended way to break dates up into components.
