Really?...I don't think so. He was really nervous about his mission to kill Adama. Much more so than Starbuck. He was also very "factual" with his speech at her memorial service. As if he didn't have much heart into it.
As far as his "You can't rape a machine" comment, well....you can read a lot or a little into that. On the face of it just a statement of fact. Cylons are machines.
BUT you have to think that he is just de-humanizing an enemy as a way of rationalizing the abuse. De-humanizing an enemy is what you would do with a HUMAN foe, BUT how do you de-humanize something that isn't human..or even a "living" being?
Mentally, you could go round and round with this.
