If your application is on the SharePoint server then you're probably running into the Loopback check, which prevents http access from the server to itself using an other name than the real servername.

If this is the case then you can see how to disable the loopback check in this kb

I would double check the security of the feed. If it requires any sort of authentication (windows, forms, etc.), it will fail in the normal SharePoint web part.
