Query Post help with time and date

I used a plugin so that all my posts, whether they’re in the future or now, are published. Now that all they all have the post status as published, I can’t use

<?php query_posts('cat=1&post_status=future&orderby=date&order=asc'.'&paged='.$paged); ?>

to render only the future posts.

Is there a way to use the time to query the posts? Like if published before today, then … and if published after today, then …?
