I'll try to be as neutral as I can
Python lets you do more, and do it faster. By faster, I don't mean that the program itself is faster, but that it is easier to write a program in python because of the ease of the language.
The drawback is of course, that is slower than compiled languages. This is mainly noticeable in number crunching programs and the like.
The reason why I (and most other Python programmers) prefer python is that the faster program development time is a huge compromise over the performance hit. There are many things you can do in Python that would break your mind in C/C++. Not that it's not possible, just that it's very hard.
Sorry for the off-topic.
