AFAIK, there's no such thing in the standard library,
however there is a very nice pure python module called
stripogram which provides functions both for completely
stripping HTML and for allowing a subset of it (if, for
example, you would like to keep bold and italic formatting,
but nothing else).

Just google for "stripogram", it's hosted at zope.org.
