Does anyone else find it odd that the administration has been so quiet about Russia feeding our military secrets to Saddam before and during the invasion? How is that not a big deal?

Why are you concerned about this. The documents that assert that the Russians did this come from the same cache of documents pointing out relationships with Saddam and Al Qaeda. As you have pointed out vociferously they haven't been authenticated. The Russians claim this assertion is false. Why would the Whitehouse make noise regarding this?
Now, hypothetically of course, if this were true it would shed new light upon UN involvement in Iraq prior to the war and why the Bush admin. would never have received support from Russia and France no matter the circumstances. Not to mention what the other documents have to say about WMDs and operational ties betwixt Al Qaeda and Hussein's Iraq. But that's a great big "if".
