Obviously, you are mistaken. He has the right AND the authority to evaluate the burka. What is to prevent it being used by bank robbers? By suicide bombers? It is dangerous wherever it is used, not just degrading to women (which it also is).

Does the French constitution allow Sarkozi to legislate?

Such argument is applicable to many things (sun-glasses, masks, containers with liquids, kitchen knives) it's a question of one's fantasy. If there's a REAL problem with the banks, burkas can be banned in banks, not in the street.
