Oh, certainly Rodney can be discreet. He hasn't said word one about the existance of the Lost City of the Ancients millions of light-years away to anyone not directly 'in the know', and the fact that he's comfortable around an alien could lead to supposition, sure, but he'd never come out and /said/ that he deals with them on a regular basis. The Asgard. Goa'uld. Ascended Ancients. Even in this push for honesty, he hasn't really said who he worked for, much less the USAF. He'd simply said the Pentagon would be looking for him...
As for what to do next, well.. that was not necessarily his call. For all intents and purposes, Dr. Jackson was running the show, and this meeting was for prioritizing, right? Those who needed to know what his expertise was, knows, and beyond that?
"I'd like to get back to the computers, bring it down to base code if I need to." After all, there is power in the building, which means he can run his own laptop with impugnity. Get everything organized the way he wanted them now that he's got a great deal more information... And, with coffee and food now in comparitive abundance, McKay'll pull all-nighters if need be. After all, what else was there to do? At least for a brilliant scientist like himself...
