Sessions was taking a dig at Obama when he asked her that question, just trying to score some points. If the Chief Executive says "this is how we are enforcing immigration" and it has not yet been deemed unconstitutional, you must do your part to faithfully execute the executive order if you wish to keep your job. If you have a backbone, tell them you believe it is wrong and, if they won't change their mind, then refuse and hope that the court eventually deems it unconstitutional as that you can at least score your moral victory. 

So she did her job.  And he had the ability to fire her for it.

I think most people understand that.

Some think that just because she disagreed with the order (already partially stopped by a court order) then she wasn't doing her job which I can only assume they think is to rubber stamp whatever comes out of the White House.

I have no problem with someone whose job it is to look because the surface doing just that and stating their conclusion on it.  I suppose others do.
