You can do this if you want, but it's much easier to use requests 
library (http://docs.python-requests.org/).  Compared to using the raw 
urllib stuff, requests makes it trivial to deal with argument encoding, 
cookie management, and a zillion other little details which will drive 
you crazy if you try to roll your own with urllib.
