Four years for simple possession seems a bit harsh to me.

Maybe harsh in the US. He was not in the US. And what business does a US senator have getting involved with someone who has been convicted of such a crime? This guy was arrogant enough to bring hard drugs into an arabic country so I say again, let him rot. But, of course,he didn't rot did he? He skated on the whole thing.
