title: HTTPS request in python 2.7
body: <p>I can't find documentation on this. Is it possible to run an https request in python 2.7?</p>
  
  <p>I tried this code for 3.2, but these modules don't exist in 2.7.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import urllib.request
  r = urllib.request.urlopen('https://openapi.etsy.com/v2/users/redluck2013/profile?        fields=transaction_sold_count&amp;api_key=1pmmjgt3j4nz5ollhzz2hvib')
  print(r.read())
  </code></pre>
