  8. Petraeus affair: An FBI, Justice Department cover-up?

    Congressional leaders on intelligence issues are questioning why they were not told before the election about the FBI investigation into CIA chief David Petraeus’ affair. "We should have been told," said Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a Democrat from California who heads the Senate Intelligence Committee and learned of the affair on Friday. " "It seems this [the investigation] has been going on for several months and, yet, now it appears that they're saying that the FBI didn't realize until Election Day that Gen. Petraeus was involved. It just doesn't add up," said Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee. Justice and FBI officials had known since the summer that Mr. Petraeus was in a dalliance with his biographer, Paula Broadwell. Both admitted to the affair just before the election. But President Obama wasn’t told until two days after the election. Was that wrong? Should intelligence committees have been told, or would that have risked a security breach? Did the FBI and Justice wait till after the election to tell the president and intelligence leaders in Congress to avoid hurting Mr. Obama’s re-election chances? What’s your view?
