See, easy when you know how!

?Que?

So we ALL are right 'whingers.' (I am, but that's not the point). So Ted Kennedy, Hillary, and John Kerry are right wingers? Ok, then. Glad you made it clear for me.

"Angels" equating to any sort of course/heading? Unless this is a wind up, WTFO? If it is a wind up, then sorry.
