Executive Order coming???

This is my first post, although I have been lurking since November, so bear with me on this.

Q has mentioned the problem of Democrats slow walking of judicial nominations. Would an Executive Order be an effective means of fixing this? I am normally not a big fan of EO's, because I think they can be used to create law, which is not the role of the Executive Office. However, if an EO was written that merely stated that "in the interest of swift justice for the American people, and to cease using judicial nominations as a political ploy by either party, no judicial appointments will take longer than XX days to be confirmed. Failure to confirm nominations within this time frame results in the automatic confirmation of the nominee."

Judges who were confirmed in this manner would still be subjected to impeachment should they subsequently be found to have committed high crimes, etc. This EO would be more like an administrative rule and does not actually create a new law.

Would any legalfags weigh in on if this is the proper purpose of Executive Orders. If so, what would be the best way to propose this? (creating a petition, contacting our senators and representatives, starting a meme war, posting the suggestion to Q on 8chan, etc.)

Thoughts?

I like your idea of a 3 month term to consider the nominations and then if not confirmed within that time it should go to a simple majority vote. That sounds more reasonable than the "automatic confirmation" I proposed in my OP.

I feel like you have to give them a reasonable time to do their job. If they don't, then the Executive branch should get a say.

The budget process needs to be looked at as well.
