The easiest way would be to put the single module feedparser.py in the
same directory as your program (I don't completely get your reasons not
to do that). OR put feedparser.py in some other directory that is already
listed in sys.path. OR add the directory containing feedparser.py to
sys.path, just at the beginning of your program.

*IF* the directory 'feedparser' were a package (that is, if it contained a
file __init__.py), then that last import statement would be valid. But I
don't reccomend doing this; you're changing the module's environment.

The malicious thing to do would be spam Python servers with 'import
Lib' and common locale-specific-language short words for techs: import
biblio, import server--- things we might all want really small-to-zero
numbers of... if in numbers... and such as columns of instancy (the
currency), from the instant of instant message. So, can you tank my
laptop, or can I go tanking the town?
