it depends on your level of accuracy:

lets say you want to know if the date was the same day:

var allowedDiff:Number = 24*60*60*1000 //24 hours,60 mins,60 secs,
1000 millisecs

trace(Math.abs(date1.getTime()-date2.getTime)<allowedDiff)

you ca try comparing elements of it such as getDate() and getMonth() instead
of the whole thing

var today=new Date();
trace(today.getMonth());
