Watchdog: IRS targeting of conservative groups caused 'substantial' delays

The IRS program that flagged conservative groups for extra scrutiny was the result of "ineffective management" and "inappropriate criteria" -- and led to "substantial" delays in processing applications that in some cases lasted years, according to a watchdog report obtained by Fox News. 

The inspector general's report revealed that the program, first acknowledged by IRS officials last Friday, began in 2010. 

The report said the flawed criteria, which led to Tea Party and other groups being singled out, was allowed to stay in place for more than 18 months. 

The report said this resulted in substantial delays, with the majority of the applications sitting idle in IRS offices for 13 months.
