maybe you meant to use itertools.ifilter?

Help on class ifilter in module itertools:
class ifilter(__builtin__.object)
| ifilter(function or None, sequence) --> ifilter object
|
| Return those items of sequence for which function(item) is true.
| If function is None, return the items that are true.
>>> list(itertools.ifilter(lambda x: x<5,range(10)))
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
>>> list(itertools.ifilter(lambda x: 2<x<5,range(10)))
[3, 4]
or, more likely, ifilterfalse:
>>> list(itertools.ifilterfalse(lambda x: x<5,range(10)))
[5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
>>> list(itertools.ifilterfalse(lambda x: 2<x<5,range(10)))
[0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
