[Q]: Paragraph- Sent 1: The Legal Services Corp. (LSC), a quasi-governmental agency that provides legal aid for the poor, would receive $329 million in fiscal 2004 under President Bush's proposal - the same amount requested in 2003 and approved for 2002 and 2001.
Sent 2: If approved, the hold-the-line request for LSC means its budget would erode with inflation for another year, but it could be worse for the organization: Many conservatives fought for years to do away with the LSC altogether, saying legal services attorneys were spending too much time fighting for liberal causes or pursuing politically charged cases against the government instead of representing the needy.
Sent 3: Opposition to the organization has cooled since 1996, when Congress approved restrictions (PL 104-134) on the sorts of cases federally funded legal aid attorneys can take.
Sent 4: (1996 Almanac, p.
Sent 5: 5-36) Republicans cut the organization's budget deeply in 1996, but its funding has recovered slowly.
Sent 6: Last month, in the omnibus spending bill for fiscal 2003, the Senate added a onetime increase of $19 million, which, if approved in the final version, would bring the LSC budget to $348 million.
Sent 7: The money would go to help states, such as Michigan and Ohio, that lost money when the organization redistributed its funding based on census counts made in 2000 of poor households.
Sent 8: If the extra money survives a conference with the House and makes it to the president's desk, LSC supporters may try to include it in the organization's fiscal 2004 funding.
Sent 9: The federal government began funding some programs to provide legal assistance to the poor in the late 1960s; the Legal Services Corporation was created in 1974 (PL 93-355).
Sent 10: LSC gives nearly all its money to state and local agencies, which provide civil legal assistance to those whose income is less than 125 percent of the federal poverty level - $11,075 a year for an individual and $22,625 for a family of four.
Sent 11: Funding for legal services goes to defend needy clients in domestic violence cases, custody cases and other such matters, according to LSC.
Sent 12: Since 1996, lawyers who receive money from Legal Services have been prohibited from such activities as lobbying legislatures, filing class-action suits, participating in political demonstrations or strikes, pursuing abortion-related litigation, representing illegal aliens or prisoners, or defending public housing tenants evicted because they were charged with selling drugs. 
Question: Which political party cut the LSC's budget?.
[A]: Republican.

[Q]: Paragraph- Sent 1: Before 9/11, the CIA did not invest in developing a robust capability to conduct paramilitary operations with U.S. personnel.
Sent 2: It relied on proxies instead, organized by CIA operatives without the requisite military training.
Sent 3: The results were unsatisfactory.
Sent 4: Whether the price is measured in either money or people, the United States cannot afford to build two separate capabilities for carrying out secret military operations, secretly operating standoff missiles, and secretly training foreign military or paramilitary forces.
Sent 5: The United States should concentrate responsibility and necessary legal authorities in one entity.
Sent 6: The post-9/11 Afghanistan precedent of using joint CIA-military teams for covert and clandestine operations was a good one.
Sent 7: We believe this proposal to be consistent with it.
Sent 8: Each agency would concentrate on its comparative advantages in building capabilities for joint missions.
Sent 9: The operation itself would be planned in common.
Sent 10: The CIA has a reputation for agility in operations.
Sent 11: The military has a reputation for being methodical and cumbersome.
Sent 12: We do not know if these stereotypes match current reality; they may also be one more symptom of the civil-military misunderstandings we described in chapter 4.
Sent 13: It is a problem to be resolved in policy guidance and agency management, not in the creation of redundant, overlapping capabilities and authorities in such sensitive work.
Sent 14: The CIA's experts should be integrated into the military's training, exercises, and planning.
Sent 15: To quote a CIA official now serving in the field:"One fight, one team."Sent 16: Finally, to combat the secrecy and complexity we have described, the overall amounts of money being appropriated for national intelligence and to its component agencies should no longer be kept secret.
Sent 17: Congress should pass a separate appropriations act for intelligence, defending the broad allocation of how these tens of billions of dollars have been assigned among the varieties of intelligence work.
Sent 18: The specifics of the intelligence appropriation would remain classified, as they are today. 
Question: The CIA is stereotyped for having what kind of reputation in operations?.
