Maybe the photographs of the sculpture were bad, but I don't see anything even vaguely offensive here. And Ganesh is the best god! All you have to do to keep him happy is feed him! Who doesn't love a god that's that easy.
Here's an interpretation of ganesh I like more and displays Ganesh as the happy god most of my Hindu friends would associate him as.
As far as the lunacy about the swastika (I'm presuming there's one on the sculpture that I didn't see) would it kill anybody to learn something?
