A cover letter can be more than just why you want the job.
Really, just demonstrating that you've taken the time to read our website and try to understand what we do scores you a few points in my book. It's one thing to say you're "detail oriented," but quite another to actually demonstrate it by paying attenting to details.

If you don't want to spend 5 or 10 minutes writing a cover letter for the job, why are you bothering to apply at all? And why should anyone bother to spend the 5 minutes to read your resume?
