I think of it more as Daniel ranting at himself than at Vala. She was the catalyst, but his emotional baggage had been building up for so much longer. He had to crack. Yes, he's angry at her, but also at himself.
I don't know how many metas and essays I have read on this scene, but it has to be one of the most interesting and complex in the entire series. :D
So my reasoning is yes, Daniel is a bit of a dick when he wants to be, his outburst wasn't warranted - but it had to happen.
