No, but if you think about it, he's seriously backstabbed a loyal ally--Songbird--who he allowed to be placed under Norman Osborne's complete and total power without any recourse. I mean the scenario is basically that she's as good as dead, since Norman can arrange any of a number of battle accidents whenever he feels like it. And even if Tony didn't place Norman in charge of the T-Bolts, he DID originally draw him into government service with his earlier wacky plans--so he SHOULD feel responsible for the excesses committed by him.
