Do you need an alignment or is the steering wheel actually bent?
If you need it aligned, take it to a shop to have it done right. Or, if you're wanting it done yourself and done quick, jack the front of the car up (use jack stands). put your steering wheel at straight. Check tire pressures and set them all at the correct level. Go to the back of the car, pick a side (driver or passenger) and look across the outer face of the back tire to the outer face of the front tire. Hard to describe what it is you're looking for, but as you're looking across it, see which way the front tire is pointed and use the front face of the tires as a guide, you're going to want it exactly in line with the rear. Go to the front, loosen the tie rod and run it in whichever direction it needs to go. Go back to the back, look across the rear tire to the front, and get it closer to straight. Do this until the front tire is exactly lined up with the rear. Repeat the procedure for the other side. Then, when you're done, adjust the front end so that the front tires toe slightly inward, maybe a thirty second of an inch, it's not much. Make sure they are toed in equally. This will only work if the front and rear track of the car hasn't been messed with (no wheel extensions, funny offsets, wrong rear end, etc. If you look across the back tire and it looks offset from the front, this wont work. Make sure to run the locknuts back down on the tie rods when you're done.
I've done this on my first gen dodge diesel with no problem; no pull while on the highway or steering wheel misalignment. Took me about 20 minutes, and that was with the driver tire pointing hard left and the passenger tire pointing soft right. It was a nightmare to drive on the highway. (was like that when i first bought it) If you decide to do it yourself, it's all on you, I will not be responsible for anything that happens as a result.
