But, there is a huge gargantun difference between trying to hack a Dept. of Labor website and a DOD website. Most of the wannabes will just see if the hack hasn't been patched yet and if not try to exploit just to see if its possible. No motive beyond just doing the hack.

Oh sure. I know very little about Anonymous, but from what I've read, and feel free to correct me, it's more of a shapeless idea than an actual group. You can't really join as much as you adopt a shared philosophy/sentimentality. Obviously, such a large group will attract tons of peons with little expertise, but I would also think that the distributed nature of such a large network of individuals would allow for some pretty gifted individuals to lurk while also utilizing the masses of their membership as a form of a digital meat shield.
