Clones were always programmed to follow Order 66. Lucas said it himself:
>"Obviously, the clones play a very big role in this series. And we really enjoy turning them into personalities, and seeing the war from their side, and seeing what their problems are. Obviously the issues are how were they programmed, and when were they programmed, and that sort of thing will, eventually, reveal itself."

And it was presented as such in the films.
>"Karen Traviss? She didn't get everything right. It is very clear if you watch ROTS that [Order 66] is not an order on the books. And it's simply from this one detail—that Karen Traviss ignored—but the detail is: when Sidious shows up as a hologram and says 'Execute Order 66,' the clones say 'It will be done, my lord.' Not 'yes sir,' not 'yes chancellor.' 'It will be done, my lord.' Commander Cody has never seen a Sith Lord. He doesn't know what a Sith Lord is. He's never seen Darth Sidious. Unless this is a Manchurian Candidate situation. Unless they have been programmed, on a deep level. The brain washing kicks in the moment they hear the words 'Order 66,' and they look at that hologram and they see God. They see the man responsible for their creation: Darth Sidious. And that's what it is. And, by the way, I have it on authority from George Lucas that that's exactly what it is. Now, Traviss didn't watch—she missed that aspect of ROTS. She didn't pay attention to that. If you are going to take Lucas and Filoni to task for changing the Mandalorians, you have to take Traviss to task for changing one of the most key plot points of the entire saga."—Sam Witwer

Anything else makes no sense, explicitly contradicts what was shown in the films, and requires ridiculous suspension of disbelief and writing everyone out of character to justify it. No matter how edgy and "cool" it sounds on paper.
