Doh,

Honey, you have to come up with a very sarcastic cutting statement that is above reproach.

All kidding aside, my in laws are asses. Sometimes it seems that my father in law goes out of his way to hurt my daughter. After 18 years of heartache I told you're just going to have to either accept them as they are or move on. Not a word you say will make a difference. I suspect the same is true for your in laws. And I'm very sorry about that.
