Prime Minister Stephen Harper (says shut the hell up.)

Ottawa) The Prime Minister's Office has warned Conservative MPs not to comment on the marriage next month of two gay Royal Canadian Mounted Police constables.

The gag order went to all MPs but was aimed at ``the small minority who might say something stupid,'' said one caucus member.

It's just the latest in a concerted effort by Prime Minister Stephen Harper to control and limit his new government's public message track.

And it follows party strategists' successful suppression during the election campaign of outspoken social conservatives whose opinions might have harmed the party's climb to power.

``It shows that Stephen Harper does not trust his own caucus to avoid social Neanderthalism on these issues,'' said openly gay Liberal MP Scott Brison.
