Dive into Python:
http://www.diveintopython.net/

Dive into Python 3:
http://www.diveinto.org/python3/

Both of these, along with Learn Python the Hard way, are suitable for 
beginner programmers. I'm don't know of anything better for people who 
are already experienced programmers in other languages.
