Here:

#!/usr/bin/python

import urllib2
import xml.dom.minidom as DOM

i = []
can = 'http://feeds.feedburner.com/ICanHasCheezburger'
has = urllib2.urlopen(can).readlines()
cheez = DOM.parseString(''.join(has))

ichcb_url = 'http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com'

for burger in cheez.getElementsByTagName('media:content'):
         burger = burger.attributes.get('url').value
         if burger.startswith(ichcb_url):
                 i.append(burger)

for ICanHasCheezburger in i:
         print ICanHasCheezburger
