Order is arbitrary. You'll have to define your order then derive a contradiction.

Order is arbitrary. It only need be consistent and uniform. Using many object oriented languages, you can redefine order on data type that you define. Off course the compiler will not ensure a valid ordering. You could toss a coin to decide, but then it wouldn't be very valuable.

Here is a better statement: Bush administration says that 1+1i < 2+3i.

MATH GEEK WARNING: It is proven that there is no ordering in the complex plane. A good explanation: http://www.cut-the-knot.org/do_you_know/complex_compare.shtml.
