March 28th, 2013 (InsideCostaRica.com) President Barack Obama of the United States will visit Costa Rica in May, according to a statement sent to Inside Costa Rica by the U.S. Embassy in San Jose yesterday.

Obama plans to visit Costa Rica on May 3-4th as part of a trip which will also include a visit to Mexico.

Obama will meet with the heads of the Central American Integration System (SICA), over which Costa Rica currently presides.

This will be the first U.S. president to visit Costa Rica since Bill Clinton’s visit in 1997.

According to the statement, the purpose of the visit is to “discuss collective efforts to promote economic growth and development in Central America and our ongoing collaboration on citizen security.”

Some details of the visit have yet to be determined, and the U.S. Embassy said to keep an eye on their Facebook page and Twitter account for further details as they are released.

    The two least popular presidents in the western hemisphere getting together HAS to spell double trouble.
    One main thing they have in common is that they both love to spend and squander other people’s money, big time. It seems likely they will cook up some kind of brainless plan to spend more taxpayer money and also increase taxes. One thing they WON´T be talking about is the lack of ethics in government, another common mutual problem.

  • stevieboy

    this is digusting… i leave the U.S. only to have this incompetant cival worker come and taint our country

    Obama is the worst President in history, it will cost over 270,000 dollars a hour to fly here for nothing! To talk to another worthless President who like to waste money. He would do better to stay in DC and pay for his families vacation out of his own pocket.

  • robert shaner

    where’s he stayin at the Del Rey or just the secret service stayin there?

  • disgusted

    He was able so far cover up the Benghazi fiasco, Deaths of 4 Americans and his partner in crime Hillary Clinton. Giving Billions of our money to Egypt, and many other countries we do not have. But hey! he won by 3 million more votes and that who we got whether or not I agree. So lets give billions I bet Lady Laura got her handout not that it will help anyone but her posse here. Thieves stick together it seems.

  • J Guy

    You people are over the top. Have some respect for the office at least. This man was voted in twice by the majority of the American people. I rarely agreed with President George W Bush ,but I respected him as my president. Stop being so angry. Life is pretty good!

    • http://www.facebook.com/people/Daniela-Rosaura/100003239282826 Daniela Rosaura

      Why should we respect the office, when Obama doesn’t in the very least respect it? In fact, he is trying his best to destroy that office and instead convert it into a full dictatorship. You must read only the MMS.

      • J Guy

        You should repect it because the American people made a clear choice in 2 free elections. So in reality you don’t believe in democray or the will of the people. In 4 years there will be another election and the people will choose another president. What dictatorship are you talking about? Perhaps Costa Rica’s new best friend ,China. Never heard any complaints when Chinese political figures visit! No one at all votes for leaders in China. Where is your outrage for a real dictatorship?

          The elections were rigged and Ron Paul squeezed out.

        • georgechapogas

          i don’t if know if rigged is right. ron paul would never win. however it is fair to say that obozo’s majority was a combination of public employees and people that pay no federal income tax and want gimme dats ….i.e. leeches living off of others. obozo and moochelle are horrible people. deserve no respect. the entire left thinks democracy is about voting away other people’s money. laura is the same. ” why not support more taxes on the rich, you won’t have to pay” that is a sickness and a lie. the left is evil. why should we respect those pukes? i hope they all die.

          • J Guy

            Then you are a facist my friend!

          • georgechapogas

            racist? you are an idiot my friend.

          • J Guy

            Sorry, Typo! Fascist! I have no idea if you are racist.

          • georgechapogas

            equally stupid. Fascism, a system of government where means of production are privately held but completely controlled by the state. i am a libertarian. i hate government run by any color, and i hate idiots that think that is wrong and have a right to my assets to promote their ideas. put yourself where you think you belong. i put you in stupidville.

          • J Guy

            fascism [ˈfæʃɪzəm]
            n (sometimes capital)
            1. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) any ideology or movement inspired by Italian Fascism, such as German National Socialism; any right-wing nationalist ideology or movement with an authoritarian and hierarchical structure that is fundamentally opposed to democracy and liberalism
            2. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) any ideology, movement, programme, tendency, etc., that may be characterized as right-wing, chauvinist, authoritarian, etc.

          • georgechapogas

            obviously you used a wiki definition, mine is from economist Thomas Sowel. the popular European definition of fascism that you cite is used by poop throwing grade school name callers. night.

          • disgusted

            Thomas Sowell is one of the most brilliant thinkers of the 20th and 21st century. His theory and books are one of the most thought out deduction of our society. I am a lab rat compared to this man. George makes a point however, comes across angry sarcastic in saying his peace.

          • mhogan

            Not certain is as much anger as passion. More Ticos should use a little passion in dealing with political issues when their government wants to render them impotent and in slavery; but alas “futbol” and the occasional rape puts them back in the drivers’ seat of power. Thomas Powell is an economic genius, not like the buffoons who run the steam engine of taxes in the U.S.

          • georgechapogas

            Sowel. yes, i was angered by this mental midget’s insults, but also accurate in my assessment of political labels and the worst president in American history. a corrupt unqualified POS. being called names by an ignorant left wing shill still gets my goat. my bad.

          • J Guy

            No, I am a “mental midget” and a “shill” who is a practicing physician with a PhD in biochemistry that happens to believe that democracy is ulitimately the best form of government !

          • georgechapogas

            then do point to that democracy oh short one. a representative republic separates civil and social issues that one can vote on, or at least tries to. your ideal of a “demos” has a history of tyranny by the majority because it allows voting on everything. you called me a racist and a fascist. i responded accurately in kind. if you practice you profession like you post i fear for your clients. the start of this is simple. odumbo is living proof that you can have a really bad president, bush, then get a worse one, odumbo. my guess is many ticos feel the same about laura. the root of the problems in both cases is allowing people to vote other people’s wealth away from them for supposed good social reasons. the entire planet is imploding due to that “democracy”. you stand with the looters. pound sand

          • georgechapogas

            i was attacked as a racist, deleted, and fascist, inaccurate so i was corrective and angry.

          • J Guy

            Philosophy of government that stresses the primacy and glory of the state, unquestioning obedience to its leader, subordination of the individual will to the state’s authority, and harsh suppression of dissent. Martial virtues are celebrated, while liberal and democratic values are disparaged. Fascism arose during the 1920s and ’30s partly out of fear of the rising power of the working classes; it differed from contemporary communism (as practiced underJoseph Stalin) by its protection of business and landowning elites and its preservation of class systems. The leaders of the fascist governments of Italy (1922–43), Germany (1933–45), and Spain (1939–75)—Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler, and Francisco Franco—were portrayed to their publics as embodiments of the strength and resolve necessary to rescue their nations from political and economic chaos.

          • georgechapogas

            euro definition of right is very different from the American tradition of the right. in the USA government primacy is the province of the progressives. read Woodrow Wilson teddy Roosevelt. your points are crap. odumbo is an idiot president. deserves no respect because he is crap.

          • J Guy

            Not talking about right and left. Talking about Fascism!

          • georgechapogas

            which no one posting here is.

          • disgusted

            Geez! I like to see the TWO of you George and J Guy in the same room doing a debate. You both show a lot of passion when it comes to Obama, Racist, Fascism, whatever. My point using words Like douche bag, Obozo are like baiting each other with you as sharks going after never ending circle. Meet you guys downtown sometime.

            Oxford’s Definition

            Definition of fascismnoun[mass noun]

            an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization.

            (in general use) extreme right-wing, authoritarian, or intolerant views or practices:this is yet another example of health fascism in actionThe term Fascism was first used of the totalitarian right-wing nationalist regime of Mussolini in Italy (1922–43); the regimes of the Nazis in Germany and Franco in Spain were also Fascist. Fascism tends to include a belief in the supremacy of one national or ethnic group, a contempt for democracy, an insistence on obedience to a powerful leader, and a strong demagogic approach

          • georgechapogas

            Oxford is European. the American right is not Fascist in the least. the continent and the USA have different definitions of all political divides. liberal is still the right here in costa rica and europe. your calling me a racist then a fascist for thinking the current unqualified president ostupida is an insult to anyone’s intelligence. so play your games, but do drop dead.

          • J Guy

            First of all, I never called you a racist (I mispelled Fascist). Why do you want everyone to die? Calm down.

          • georgechapogas

            you called me a racist, then deleted it. your apology is above. calling people a racist and a fascist then saying calm down. do go away.
