It means something like: Yes, I agree with THAT which you have just said.

Mona: I want to marry X.
Mona's parents: We do not want you to marry X.
Mona: But he is very nice.
Mona's parents: That he is! But we still do not want you to marry him. We want you to marry someone who is very intelligent. And X is, well, not too intelligent.
