I would also put the statuses in a dictionary, such that:

     status_code[BAD_GATEWAY] = "Bad Gateway"

This could be accomplished via something like:

     status_code = dict([
        (val, key.replace('_',' ').title())
            for key,val in globals.items()
                if key==key.upper() and not key.startswith('HTTP')
                    and not key.startswith('_')
     ])
