Hi,
It depends on how you're accessing and displaying the tweets... are you
trying to show your home timeline (the tweets you typically see on
twitter.com's home page while logged in), or are you trying to show your own
tweets, or are you trying to show someone else's tweets?
Showing your own home timeline requires authentication, as there must be a
perspective of who's home timeline is being viewed. Further, it's not
appropriate to post your own home timeline where others can see it, as you
may be following protected accounts and putting those user's privacy at
risk.
Fetching an unprotected user's timeline (their tweets, your tweets) does not
require authentication.
How are you currently integrating the streams into your site? A server-side
fetch, a client-side fetch? A widget?

Hi there- With the outdated Basic Authentication method, I was able
to display my freinds tweets on my web page without a problem. Now
with oAuth, unless already logged in, I have to click the login button
with Twitter each time to display that content. Multiple that for
each person that visits my web page. Headach City!
Is there something I am missing? Can the login be done once and
always display said content when someone visits my site? Thanks, any
help is appreciated!
