And here's the same code written without your class but maintaining as 
far as possible the same structure. I find my version far easier to read 
then your's with all your spurious 'g.' 'L.' prefixes.

#!python2.7
from textwrap import dedent

class Blob(object): pass

prog = Blob()
prog.VERSION = '1.0'            # But isn't this so much cleaner?
prog.NAME = 'Thesaurus'

class TestClass:
        no = 'Class'
        way = 'this'

def main ():
        tc = TestClass()
        l = ['Some', 'objects']

        # Here's how you should create output without a fight.
        print dedent('''\
                When programing python without {prog.NAME}, it is very
                easy to access your {l[1]}.
                
                {l[0]} people might say {prog.NAME} has no 
{tc.no}.''').format(prog=prog, l=l, tc=tc)

        if hasattr(prog, 'VERSION'):
                print 'But I challenge them to write code {tc.way} clean 
without it!'.format(**locals())

if __name__ == '__main__':
        main()
