Yesterday, I pointed out here how you can help federal whistleblowers get the stronger protections they need. That way, they can protect American citizens from government mismanagement that now includes security or terrorist threats.

Now, it looks like there's another reason to protect whistleblowers: The Office of Special Counsel, the agency that's supposed to represent federal whistleblowers' interests, apparently doesn't have much to do these days.

According to today's Washington Post, the Office of Special Counsel (OSC) recently got into hot water when it published dress code tips for its employees in an internal newsletter.
