> A good OO programmer could easily write good functional code.

You are aware that functional programming is *not* procedural or imperative
programming? 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming

OO is *heavily* depending on state and state modification. I've seen OO
programmers weep over functional programming assignments. Which is not to
say that FP is in any sense bad - au contraire, knowing it is important
because it is a different school of thought that's very valuable to know
of. And Python allows for many of the FP concepts to be used. See map,
filter and other HOFs.
