I'd be happy to add a disclaimer to the Python 2.7 docs directing users to use the requests module instead (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests).

People *really* *really* *really* should be using requests on the client side when doing HTTP/HTTPS in Python 2.x - the standard library support is now too old to have kept up with the evolution of web security and standard.
