Pylint may have a difficult time understanding what you are doing here. 
  You can use pylint comments to tell it to shut up when you know better.

But also, you might find it easier to use the "six" module from PyPI to 
handle these sorts of differences.  It's easier than doing it ad-hoc 
with your own logic.
