First you shouldn’t be using query_posts() as it will destroy globals and mess up conditionals etc…

You didn’t mention where this code is running. If it is on a page template for instance you will not get any posts because when pass $query_string into your query you are using the global $wp_query object and it will only query for page post_types.

I tested your code using new WP_Query instead of query_posts and it worked fine.

function filter_where( $where = '' ) {

$where .= " AND post_date >= '2012-05-01' AND post_date < '2012-05-14'";
return $where;
}

add_filter( 'posts_where', 'filter_where' );

$query = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'post' ) );

    echo '<div id="content" style="color: white!important;">';
    echo '<h1>And here are the posts……</h1>';
    while( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post();
    
    echo '<h2>'. get_the_title() .'</h2>';
    
    
    endwhile;
    echo '</div>';
    
    
remove_filter( 'posts_where', 'filter_where' );
