If you keep at it, eventually, you'll get here:

Code:
print(re.search(r'\bhttps://support.microsoft.com/kb/\d+\b', re.search('<p>For more information about this update.*</p>', tbull.text.encode('utf8')).group()).group(0))

Is it possible? You can put a whole file code in one line. Can you know right away if I have included all the necessary closing parenthesis, or if I passed all the needed arguments? I do not think so.

Code:
>>> import this

 The Zen of Python

    Beautiful is better than ugly.
    Explicit is better than implicit.
    Simple is better than complex.
    Complex is better than complicated.
    Flat is better than nested.
    Sparse is better than dense.
    Readability counts.
    Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
    Although practicality beats purity.
    Errors should never pass silently.
    Unless explicitly silenced.
    In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
    There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
    Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
    Now is better than never.
    Although never is often better than *right* now.
    If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
    If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
    Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!

By the way, the Zen of Python, is not just a nice advice, it is the expression of the language's philosophy, and if you pay attention, it is doing what it preaches.
Example:

Line 4
Code:
Explicit is better than implicit.

Line 19
Code:
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.

Line 20 applies the principle of explicit is better than implicit. Instead of letting the reader assume that the opposite of the previous statement is good, it just says it.
Code:
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.

idle

IDLE(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   IDLE(1)

NAME

       IDLE - An Integrated DeveLopment Environment for Python

SYNTAX

       idle [ -dins ] [ -t title ] [ file ...]

       idle [ -dins ] [ -t title ] ( -c cmd | -r file ) [ arg ...]

       idle [ -dins ] [ -t title ] - [ arg ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the idle command.  This manual page was written for Debian because the original program does not have a
       manual page.  For more information, refer to IDLE's help menu.

       IDLE is an Integrated DeveLopment Environment for Python. IDLE is based on Tkinter, Python's bindings to the Tk widget  set.  Features  are
       100%  pure  Python, multi-windows with multiple undo and Python colorizing, a Python shell window subclass, a debugger. IDLE is cross-plat-
       form, i.e. it works on all platforms where Tk is installed.

OPTIONS

       -h     Print this help message and exit.

       -n     Run IDLE without a subprocess (see Help/IDLE Help for details).

       The following options will override the IDLE 'settings' configuration:

       -e     Open an edit window.

       -i     Open a shell window.

       The following options imply -i and will open a shell:

       -c cmd Run the command in a shell, or

       -r file
	      Run script from file.

       -d     Enable the debugger.

       -s     Run $IDLESTARTUP or $PYTHONSTARTUP before anything else.

       -t title
	      Set title of shell window.

       A default edit window will be bypassed when -c, -r, or - are used.

       [arg]* and [file]* are passed to the command (-c) or script (-r) in sys.argv[1:].

EXAMPLES

       idle   Open an edit window or shell depending on IDLE's configuration.

       idle foo.py foobar.py
	      Edit the files, also open a shell if configured to start with shell.

       idle -est "Baz" foo.py
	      Run $IDLESTARTUP or $PYTHONSTARTUP, edit foo.py, and open a shell window with the title "Baz".

       idle -c "import sys; print sys.argv" "foo"
	      Open a shell window and run the command, passing "-c" in sys.argv[0] and "foo" in sys.argv[1].

       idle -d -s -r foo.py "Hello World"
	      Open a shell window, run a startup script, enable the debugger, and run foo.py, passing "foo.py" in sys.argv[0] and "Hello World" in
	      sys.argv[1].

       echo "import sys; print sys.argv" | idle - "foobar"
	      Open a shell window, run the script piped in, passing '' in sys.argv[0] and "foobar" in sys.argv[1].
