As Congress broadens its investigations into David Petraeus and his affair, key members of House and Senate committees say the FBI should not have left them out of the loop.

Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, is on the Intelligence Committee and says the Petraeus affair and FBI probe which intercepted personal emails, adds another dimension. "Should the president have known sooner?" she said. "What was the basis for this investigation, what steps were taken by the FBI to initiate this investigation in the first place? Was a court-order secured?"
