Twisted has an IRC client (in twisted.words), and it supports SSL.
There is an example in the documentation, just remember to do reactor.connectSSL
instead of reactor.connectTCP
.
If you don't want Twisted, there is also the Python IRC library, which I notice has SSL support in the latest release.

How simple? Chatzilla supports SSL and as any Mozilla Platform applications, allows using Python. https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Python
On second thought, that probably is a total overkill. A second on Ali's answer, Twisted will do.
