Ah, the ol' liar's paradox.
Of course, those only work in a world where people actually follow strict universal rules of "constantly being a liar" or "constantly tells the truth". In the real world, people don't work like that.
So no, all Irish people aren't liars. And liars don't lie all the time; They usually only do so when it's in their best interests. The best lies are those salted with the truth, after all.

I have never heard anyone say that the Irish are liars.

Compared to other nations, and I have spent considerable time in Germany, France, Switzerland and Belgium, the Irish are actually very truthful. Because a lot of people don't lie a lot themselves they are touchingly shocked every time they find out that their politicians did it once again.

All people are liars.
But according to Oscar Wilde, that's a good thing.

What a stupid question. Of course NOT all of them are liars.
They are just full of blarney, and they are humorous. I love the lilt in the accent.
