I notice that you do in fact not have quotes around your parameter names. However, it confuses me that you send authentication details twice (hence my wrongheaded post.) It works for me without doing this, and I googled it briefly and found: https://dev.twitter.com/discussions/12322#comment-27120, which confirms this can be a problem generating an Authetication Error.
