The above line looks suspect. I rewrote like so:
>>> def insert_db(_id, url, author, message):
print ("INSERT INTO TOPICS (ID, URL, AUTHOR, MESSAGE)
VALUES ({}, {}, {}, {})".format(_id, url, author, message))
...
>>> insert_db(12, "abc.com", "author", "message")
INSERT INTO TOPICS (ID, URL, AUTHOR, MESSAGE) VALUES (12, abc.com,
author, message)
>>>
I've never used format like that. It looks like you need to quote the
strings. I don't know if you can tell format to do that or if you
have to escape them.

This makes sense since the create sql code created TABLE the first time
