I assume you are talking about me there. Let me explain (or just babel if you weren't talking to me) I was just giving and example of where C++ has some of 'meta' programming like qualities of python. Then went on to describe how a language like python allows you to many things that would take pages of template code in C++ (hence the joy factor) in just a few lines. The last part was a little cheap shot at Java but hey, Python has multiple inheritance and operator overloading and is still considered easy to learn.

Edit: Try the homepage of Haskell.
