What do you think the expression
{'bgcolor' : '#eeeeee'} or {'bgcolor' :'white'}
evaluate to ?
(hint 1: Python has an interactive interpreter that let you test
expressions on the fly)
(hint 2: http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.1/ref/Booleans.html)

Yes. That's very very True.

Yes.
1/ consider learning enough of Python to understand what you are doing.
2/ consider reading the doc (or the source code, which is usually the
most accurate documentation...) of 'bs()' (wherever this comes from).
Anyway, if you hope us to *guess* what it does and what args it expects
to do it, you're just plain wrong - sorry, but we (well, I at least)
don't have the expected psychic mind-reading skills necessary to answer
your question without much informations.
And, BTW, the bitwise or operator (|) won't help...
