Are you viewing your page using the file:// protocol? In your screenshot it looks like you are, but its a little hard to see for sure...

From the Boostrap Docs on Respond.js and IE8:

Due to browser security rules, Respond.js doesn't work with pages viewed via the file:// protocol (like when opening a local HTML file). To test responsive features in IE8, view your pages over HTTP(S). See the Respond.js docs for details.

You have to view your pages using the http(s) protocol for this to work correctly. On windows you can use IIS or IIS Express to create a local web server and test your pages using http(s) protocol. Or there are many other free options for this (Google is your friend).
