You could use this decorator:
class Disabler(object):
    def __init__(self, old_function):
        self.__old = old_function
        self.enabled=True
    def __call__(self, *arg, **kwd):
        if enabled: return self.__old(*arg, **kwd)
    def enable(self): self.enabled = True
    def disable(self): self.enabled=False
