Your supposition is that because there are no WMDs in Iraq does not necessarily confirm that Bush lied.

Not much of a stretch for a supposition. I'm not saying he didn't lie.

And even if you believe it IS a huge leap of faith, there are many who do not agree with you. That's the ultimate test in a democracy.

And there are many who do agree with me, esp. when you add those who think he didn't lie to those who think it is uncertain.

The opinions of the voters isn't the ultimate test of reality in a democracy or elsewhere. They determine who will be the next president and if the majority of voters think Bush made a whole serious of awful lies then Kerry will probably be the next president but even if Kerry does become president that doesn't prove that Bush's statements about Iraq where all a bunch of horrible lies.

the Domino theory. I get nervous whenever the military comes up with cockamamie theories.

The more extreme versions of the domino theory might reasonable be called "cockamamie". The more mild versions of the theory turned out to be correct.
