How to get GMT Offset for a specific date?

How can I get GMT offset from EST for a particular date(not current date) in unix. For example, user enters date as: 2012-06-25D11:49:37, this is GMT. I have to calculate GMT offset from EST in unix for this input. Thanks in advance.

Define offset - like -5 hours? or the time in EST? ... or EDT. You do realize that EST is always at a fixed offset from GMT.
