I'm not the first person to attempt this, so if you want to try a language that is statically typed, but inspired by Python, then I suggest checking out Boo or Scala.
I dont want Static typing as it exists in Java or C or whatever other statically type langue that exists. I think of what I am trying to accomplish as an easier way of having syntax for type checking that does not involve having to do isinstance or hasattr checks in every place you want to validate the type. You just set the type using a decorator style syntax and the type checking is done automatically for you, which will reduce code repetition, especially in getter/setter methods of properties.
