Forum:KB:Reaction to the Clone Army

How was the sudden appearance of the Grand Army of the Republic on Geonosis explained--particularly to the opponents of the Military Creation Act--given that the debate surrounding the Act's passage was not yet even over? Presumably, neither the opposition nor the proponents of the Act would have had no knowledge of the growing of the army since it was ordered in secret. And yet after Palpatine was granted emergency power, a fully grown and trained army was immediately available, seemingly out of nowhere, to conduct military operations on Geonosis. Did the opposition call foul on the commissioning of the clone army since it must have been done prior to the vote being cast and the army approved?
