I believe RedHat 6.1 uses an installer that uses PyGnome/PyGTK (Python
bindings for
Gnome widgets/toolkit ?), so it needs to install Python.
Usually even if you ask not to install a package which is needed by
other requested 
packages, the dependencies are resolved by the installer and all needed
packages are installed.  Up to 6.0 the installer explicitly asked about
this.
I don't know how it's done in 6.1. But it makes sense that Python would
be needed.
