It's just weak writing if you ask me. Yoda or Windu would have suspected and I think Kenobi would have definately figured it out. Heck, he knew Fett was bad news when he connected him to the Bounty Hunter that was trying to kill Padme.

I was wrong before about Jango. They knew before that he was in league with Dooku before the Senate created the Clone Army.
ObiWan calls back to the 'old folks home' before the battle with Jango and says they are using the bounty hunter named Jango Fett, but he does not believe that the Clones have been involved in the plot to assassinate Senator Amidala. That line is in there. The fact that Jango Fett was the source 10 years ago and that he has now been hired to kill Padme is seen as a disconnect by the Jedi.
When they next hear from Obi Wan, he has discovered HUGE amounts of a Droid Army ordered by the Trade Federation and Seperatists. The Commerce Guilds and Corporate Alliance both pledged their armies to Count Dooku, who he has now linked to attempting to kill Padme. At this point, the Jedi have no choice but to accept the Clone Army. Their ability to use the Force is diminished and they cannot fight a full scale war. If they do not use the Clones, the Republic will be destroyed by the Seperatists.
The Jedi serve the Senate, and the Chancellor was granted the power to form a Grand Army. At that point, since they do not distrust Palpatine yet...if they completely went against the wishes of the Senate and the leader, they'd be turning their back on the Republic. Even if they walked away, they have no control over the use of the Clones.
