python - SQLAlchemy Reflection: How do I query data from specific columns?

Using SQLAlchemy reflection, how do I query for data in specific column?

testtable = Table('member', Metadata, autoload=True)

def TestConnection():
    data = None
    loopCounter = 0 
    for data in session.query(testtable).filter_by(is_active=1, is_deleted=0): 
        print(loopCounter + 1, data)
        loopCounter += 1
    if data is None:
        raise Exception ("Could not find any data that matches your query")        
    else:
        print("It worked!")

TestConnection()

The above query gives me all the data in all columns in the members table. What I want however is to get specific data from columns. E.g. I want to retrieve the username and password columns but I just can't get the syntax right. Below is what I have so far:

def TestConnection():
    loopCounter = 0 
    for password, username in session.query(testtable).filter_by(is_active=1, is_deleted=0):
        print(loopCounter + 1, data)
        loopCounter += 1
    if data is None:
        raise Exception ("Could not find any data that matches your query")        
    else:
        print("It worked!")

That fails with the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/workspace/upark/src/monitor.py", line 36, in <module>
TestConnection()
File "/home/workspace/upark/src/monitor.py", line 26, in TestConnection
for password, username in session.query(testtable).filter_by(is_active=1, is_deleted=0):
ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)

Am working with Python3.2, SQLAchemy0.8 and mysqlconnector from Oracle.

EDIT: some slight progress

Just discovered that I can "filter" out the columns after all results have been returned as follows:

def TestConnection():
    data = None
    loopCounter = 0 
    for data in session.query(testtable).filter_by(is_active=1, is_deleted=0): 
        print(loopCounter + 1, data.password, data.username)
        loopCounter += 1
    if data is None:
        raise Exception ("Could not find any data that matches your query")        
    else:
        print("It worked!")

That will give:

1 pass1 userone
2 pass2 usertwo

But as you can see, that is after I've gotten all the columns back. What I want is to fetch data from only the columns I need. E.g. The Members table has got 10 columns. I only need to get data from two of those for efficiency.

Just specify the columns to select [session.query(testtable.c.password, testtable.c.username)] instead of the whole table [session.query(testtable)]:

def TestConnection():
    data = None
    loopCounter = 0 
    for data in session.query(testtable.c.password, testtable.c.username).filter_by(is_active=1, is_deleted=0): 
        pwd, usr = data
        print(loopCounter + 1, pwd, usr)
        loopCounter += 1
    if data is None:
        raise Exception ("Could not find any data that matches your query")        
    else:
        print("It worked!")
